Oh, Jesse. I hope it's cleared up and identified and he's home by morning. Do what you need to.

So shrift, you'll be smoothie-ing for a week?

One of the things I like about this whole wireless deal , is that I'm sitting here and Devi's asleep by my feet, with one paw curled around my big toe, and the other tucked into my arch. She likes "touching" me when she sleeps. Last night Mister Kitty discovered he could lie under one arm and rest his head on the corner of the laptop.

Not great for keeping cathair out of the keyboard, but comforting.

It's the smoothie that never ends!

Takes a sip and keeps on ...sipping?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My bread. May have risen a bit!

Today my kitty as so cute I couldn't stand it. First she fell asleep with her paw over her eyes. Then with her face planted on the mattress. Then using the iron as a pillow, on the ironing board.

Then she cleaned her butt on the ironing board.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Watch out for: the cat holding down keys, also drool on the mouse pad. Not mouse pad, what's that thing called? Unless your cat is less interested in actually lying on the computer than mine is.

I started laughing really hard right then.

Trackpad. And the cats have total disregard for the keyboard. Devi'll sleep on a closed laptop, and neither have any compunction about walking across an open one. MK will sit on the keyboard.

I figure it's cause I'm paying attention to it and it is warmer than the table/ futon.

Art Crawl!!!

Did anyone else think that Li Ning and the flying torchlighting was OTT?

I loved being able to see dressage. (I tivoed the USA coverage overnight and got to see Mark Todd and Gandalf plus some others and then they showed the evening session this morning.)

And I wish that they had shown the road race differently. I also wish that we had Phil Liggett AND Paul Sherwin not just Paul Sherwin.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, Phil and Paul are kind of an OTP for me.

Art Crawl!!!

Sasha Artemev's pommel horse routine was chockful of the HSQ!

Apparently, Phil is commentating for Australia (and also works for CBS.)

Hey the Sabre Team rocked it! I don't get what I'm seeing when I see it but very cool.

And just how deep is the Spanish Cycling team? I mean - they had 4 guys that they were talking about as favorites to win and then the fifth guy actually wins it. I was pleased that Cancellara got up for Bronze. (Not bad for the only Swiss guy in the road race.)
